25 weeks and question about fireworks

I will be 25 weeks on sunday and in my hometown they always have a huge festival over labor day.  On sunday they do an amazing firework show that i want to go to, but was wondering if it would be ok since im 25 weeks pregnant.  I read some things on this online but some people are saying its ok and others are saying if your over 22 weeks that they can really hear and that pregnant woman shouldnt go to loud music or fireworks.  But since you ladies are amazing i was wondering what you thought!  So please help!!!

Thanks!

I was 39 weeks pregnant this past 4th of July and went to fireworks. It was fine, but like shadowserpent's post, the baby was quite active during the fireworks. Not as active as she experienced but definitely active.

i dont know if you can find it, but somewhere in the archives i made a post about being like 28 weeks along and watching the 4th of july fireworks... i wasnt really that close, but close enough.... look it up... but basiclly what it boils down to is, OUCH!
ok you know how they say the baby will kick you if a loud noise happens?
well every single time the fireworks went off i got kicked, and the grand finale left me having almost peed myself and my insides felt bruised for 2 days!
its safe, but..... well i will NEVER watch fireworks while pregnant ever ever ever again!

i was like 24+ weeks or something @ 4th of july, and me and df set off fireworks in our driveway ;)

the music, i believe, is because of the vibrations....but that's mostly in a club enviroment....I THINK....

but with the fireworks, if it's a presentation, i imagine you won't be that close to them, and i imagine you'll be fine...i was all of 10 ft away from df when he was setting them off, and i even did a few...i've never heard of the fireworks thing, just the "bass" from super loud music....
